If I have a Duracell NiMH rechargeable battery unit, does it matter what mAh batteries I use?
Sunday, October 5th, 2008 | Laptop Batteries
This is about a year-old rechargeable unit for AAs and AAAs, but I can’t seem to find anywhere on the charger about a maximum battery mAh. All of the batteries I have for it are 1800 mAh, but when I went to the store, they only sold 2000+ mAh. Would it make a difference?

No it should not make a difference. As long as the charger is being used to charge NiMH batteries the capacity does not matter. The charger senses when the batteries are charged up and stops charging. I would think the 2000+ mAh batteries might take a bit longer to charge though. I believe that would be the only difference. Also, NiMH battery brand should not matter either.

No it doesnt make a difference it just means they will be of larger capacity & will take longer to charge & obviously last longer too
